Cache rating: lint claims unused resources

See original GitHub issue

Describe your problem!

Recent builds claim a couple of lint messages about unused resources related to the cache rating feature. There are 22 messages regarding drawables (marker_rating_d_0.xml etc.), and another 11 regarding colors (marker_rating_0 etc.).

@ztNFny Can you cross-check whether any of those resources are actually used, remove unused resources and apply hints for lint to avoid any false positives?

How to reproduce?

see lint report of any recent builds

Actual result after these steps?

33 lint errors regarding “unused resources” related to the cache rating feature

Expected result after these steps?

no false lint positives regarding cache rating feature

Reproducible

Yes

does it make sense to add code just to make a “stupid” program happy?

IMHO it doesn’t.

I checked into our existing lint.xml file, we already have a few ignore-entries for the UnusedResource warning:

I think the right way to go is to add these resources there as well. AFAI read on internet, regex may be used like this:

<ignore regexp="ga_trackingId|google_crash_reporting_api_key" />

Ok, if there is a better declarative way, then I would prefer to go that way. Thanks for reminding me of that way. I’ll dive into it.
